Need more information? CBS Atlanta posted great information on their site, which we’ve shared with you below:

ATLANTA (CBS ATLANTA) – You probably know him best for his famous “You might be a redneck if…” jokes and as the host of the game show “Are you smarter than a 5th grader?” But Thursday night Atlanta-based comedian Jeff Foxworthy will lend his talents to a night of laughter to raise funds for several local non-profits.

It’s the second year he’s teamed up with an Atlanta mega-church for Jeff Foxworthy’s Backyard Bash. Last year the event raised $150,000 for three community organizations.

This year, the event will be held at Buckhead Church, one of five campuses of North Point Ministries, of which Andy Stanley is the senior pastor. Foxworthy is a long-time supporter of the organization.

The Backyard Bash will include music from several live bands in addition to Foxworthy’s comedy routine. It will be held at Buckhead Church Thursday night at 7:30.

This year, all the proceeds will go to eight local non-profits: Atlanta Mission, Atlanta Community Ministries, Buckhead Christian Ministry, Charis Community Housing, The Furniture Bank of Metro Atlanta, MedShare, Open Hand, and Woodson Elementary School.

Tickets are $50 each. There are still some available and can be purchased online or at the door.
